+(First watched 2009-04-21) &nbsp;Considering what is said about Shatner as an actor on set, I wonder if he found the ridiculous things he had to do in this episode insulting, or gratifying since it put so much attention on him. &nbsp;This episode just goes on and on with the scene where he's being forced to dance or act like a pony for Alexander and yada yada yada.
+In the end, they win by way of learning the secret of giving regular humans powerful telekinesis... never to be heard from in Star Trek again.

+: '''Wink of an Eye'''
+(First watched 2009-04-22) &nbsp;Interesting premise executed in an extremely flawed and inconsistent way. &nbsp;The sped-up people seemed to be going so fast that the regular people were completely still... except when they were sometimes just really slow. &nbsp;And at those kinds of speeds, the time taken in this episode should've been months? &nbsp;They show a regular-time scene of Spock and McCoy, but on either side of it there are fast-time scenes with Scott frozen in the same place? &nbsp;During the time when it's still showing fast-time with Kirk and Spock at the end, it goes to an external shot of the Enterprise which appears to be orbiting at regular speed?
+I notice this episode has a pretty obvious &quot;putting on the boots&quot; scene.
+Second episode in a row where they come upon some amazing discovery that can give powers (albeit with a dangerous side-effect) to a regular person, never to be heard of in the franchise again.
+Also the second episode in a row where some species of small population tries to force people to stay behind for their own benefit. &nbsp;Really, beyond the kidnapping thing neither of these worlds were so bad--surely if they'd just sent out the space equivalent of Want Ads people would gladly answer. &nbsp;&quot;Wanted: Doctor to infrequently help a small colony in usually good health.&quot; &nbsp;&quot;Wanted: Anyone biologically compatible and willing to mate at high speed.&quot;
